+### Source Candidate Discovery
+
+Source candidate discovery is separate from source content discovery. Candidate
+discovery answers whether a potential source exists in the current environment;
+content discovery scans an accepted source for worlds, packs, mods, and other
+items.
+
+```text
+Engine asks providers for source candidates
+  -> each provider uses its own bounded discovery process
+  -> providers stream candidate events
+  -> engine deduplicates and filters already-added sources
+  -> UI shows suggestions that the user can accept
+```
+
+For example, the Java local provider can check known macOS launcher roots and
+shallow-search likely instance folders, while Bedrock local folders can remain a
+no-op and rely on folder picking. Connected-device providers can later emit
+device-backed candidates from USB or network discovery.
